Subject: [PATCH] ARM: socfpga: Fix crash with CONFIG_FORTIRY_SOURCE
Date:   Wed, 17 Nov 2021 20:32:44 +0100
Message-Id: <20211117193244.31162-1-tiwai@suse.de>

When CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE is set, memcpy() checks the potential
buffer overflow and panics.  The code in sofcpga bootstrapping
contains the memcpy() calls are mistakenly translated as the shorter
size, hence it triggers a panic as if it were overflowing.

This patch adds the __NO_FORTIFY define for avoiding the
false-positive crash.

I took an easier path for now, as the attempt with a foced cast
failed.  If there is a better way to handle, let me know, I'd happily
resubmit.  Thanks!
